I have. Quite a few times. There was a stage where I was entering every competition in the TV Hits magazines I used to buy all the time. I'd have prizes show up on my doorstep and I'd go, "Huh, what's this? What the heck did I enter to win THAT?"
But there was a better win earlier when I was 10. I put one entry into a country-wide competition on Agro's Cartoon Connection to win a bunch of Matchbox Carousel stuff (the carousel, the display stand, and 17 horses/animals). I won it. It's beautiful and I still have it and it's probably worth quite a bit now being Matchbox and all and the fact that they only made them for about 3 years in the early 90s.
